The Mazda CX-5, a compact crossover SUV, made its debut in 2012 as the first-generation model, codenamed KE. This generation, spanning the model years 2012 to 2017, marked a significant step forward for Mazda, establishing a strong foothold in the burgeoning crossover segment. The CX-5 aimed to provide a balance between stylish design, practicality, and driving dynamics, appealing to a diverse range of customers. Its sleek, flowing lines and sculpted bodywork, inspired by Mazda's "KODO - Soul of Motion" design language, set it apart from the competition. The CX-5 offered a spacious interior, featuring premium materials and a user-friendly layout, enhancing the overall comfort and refinement of the vehicle.

Under the hood, the CX-5 was initially offered with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and later with a more powerful 2.5-liter four-cylinder option, both paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. The CX-5's driving experience was characterized by its agile handling and responsive power delivery, enhanced by Mazda's Skyactiv technology focused on improving fuel efficiency and performance. While the CX-5 emphasized its sporty nature, it also offered a comfortable and refined ride, making it suitable for daily commutes and longer journeys. The first-generation CX-5, with its blend of style, practicality, and driver-focused performance, quickly became a popular choice in the competitive compact crossover market. Its success paved the way for further iterations of the CX-5, cementing its place as a key model in Mazda's lineup.
